It is common case that companies receive pro-forma invoices and the supplier only ships the goods if the payment is made. Exactly as the prepaid policy works with sales orders in OpenERP. The customer only gets the real invoice with the shipment. How would the manager at the customer's site issue a payment order for a pro- forma invoice that has no accounting entries? Regards, Dukai Gábor -- pro-forma invoices: documentation doesn't match implementation https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/551543 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OpenERP's Accounting Experts, which is a direct subscriber. Status in OpenObject Addons Modules: New Bug description: I'm not an international accountant, but it seems the term "pro-forma invoice" is ambiguous and can describe 2 kind of invoices, and unfortunately there is an ambiguity about what pro-forma invoices are supposed to be in OpenERP: with or without accounting moves attached. The manual reads "A Pro Forma invoice doesn’t yet have an invoice number, but the accounting entries on the invoice that’s created correspond to the amounts that Open ERP will record as the customer’s payables": http://doc.openerp.com/book/3/3_7/accounting_workflow.html#open-or-pro-forma-invoices This is one way of managing pro-forma invoices: an invoice without a number, with accounting entries. It seems to be a disputable practice, and it's forbidden here in France, but in some places people seem to understand "pro-forma invoices" this way however. But in the implementation of v5.0, pro-forma invoices really are invoices without a number and without accounting entries. French people (among others) understand "pro-forma invoices" this way. So, either the doc is wrong or the implementation is wrong - but it has to be settled and fixed.
